Why would I not want to work after I get married?? I worked before marriage and now I am married and still working. Some women quit their jobs after they have kids because of high daycare prices but that is still considered a job staying home with them.

I am male, and for sure I would allow my wife to work - but only if she feels comfortable. If She don't have a support at home to look after daily domestic activities, then she must stay back. If my wife is willing to work, then I have no problem to work at home - even take of kids (though I am not good at handling house-hold work - but I am ready to learn!)

I agree with u....they shud be independent even after their marriage...and that even gives them the strength of taking their own decisions...!!!

I don't mean to seem rude or ignorant? But is that law still in effect in contemporary society? Because if it is I don't mean to appear judgemental but that is archaic and barbaric... It amazes me all the cultural and social differences in this world. I am so lucky to live in a country where my gender doesn't determine my social status and I am not considered "property" or bound by rigid religious and legal and social rules.

No reason for women to not work after marriage unless they choose not to. I think most women who get married after they have a professional career stay working. I cannot imagine how bored I would be if I was home all day. The only reaosn I would quit working is to return to school full time.

I wold say two things: Its upto the girl if she wants to continue with her career if she wants after marriage as well.
The other side of the coin would be that she will be forced by her circumstances to leave the career aside to take of her family as when she will be pregnant and even after her delivery the baby will need her support.
Thus, if she is very caring then she may quit the job after marriage to look after her family. But, if she is less caring more of career oriented then she may opt for continuing with job and won't give birth to baby until she want.

I would say my wife should stay home and take care of everything, especially if we have children already. That's what I first thought. But nowadays, if you don't have enough money, it is really difficult to live your life. So if you're on that kind of situation, I think both of us should work and thus, she should also work.

They can. It depends upon their interest in their field and economical background.
situations may vary from one person to anoyher.
we can`t tell exactly because some may work for timepass and some may for family.
but i leave the decission to the girls only.

I believe that whether a wife works or not depends on individual situations.
If there is a financial necessity, than I believe that she should work and help contribute to the household.
Without the financial need, I think the couple should discuss the situation together and decide what is best.

I think that women, whether they are married or not, should be able to do what they want, including work.
I am not married, but I am with my long-term boyfriend and we have a daughter together. I used to work at a retail manager, but I had to quit my job since then; it was like 50-60 hours a week I was working. I just stayed home with our daughter. When I started working from home, about a year later, my boyfriend was a little weird about it at first. He was always coming up with excuses about how I shouldn’t work or why he couldn’t help me with our daughter, so I could work. Everything is better now though. He explained to me that it was kind of weird at first because he was always providing for us and it felt good to him. However, we are both now glad that I am working.

I'd like to work after marriage.
coz I like to be financial independent. :p
working doesn't have any conflict with marriage too.
My husband is happy that I go to work too.
One of the reasons is because of financial, two incomes is obviously better than 1.
Another reason is, if I don't work, I'll just stay at home and be lazy, I won't be able to grow up and learn.
But my concern is, how about the kids? who's taking care of them?

It depends on the person I think. If she wants to work by all means work.

Yes, I want to work. I can help my husband financially. If he do not want my income to manage the house it will be my pleasure to save the money for some good cause. Sometimes it may help for an emergency. If I have my hard earned money in the bank, it means lot for me.
